Hi Everyone. I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm feeling/ doing better this week. After three weeks of changing/increasing blood pressure meds to keep it from spiking to stroke level and also just jumping all over the place, the Dr thinks this combination/dosage may work. I sure hope so. Up until

Hello , I've not been here for quite a while but I need some advice, please. Do any of you lovely people out there know if there is a co-relation between lowering my levo dosage from 100 to 75 ( been on 100 for over 10 years but GP lowered it because of blood test about 6 month ago) and my type 2 diabetes

Thank you for all the comments re pred-induced diabetes and just to say I read your posts TangoCharlie with interest. I had watched an episode of the Glucose Godess but frankly I was a bit bewildered. I had an appt with my GP on Thursday. In the 3 minute consultation she said that I needed to take medication

Long story. I am awaiting a TAVI(hopefully)but have recently been diagnosed with Myeloma. I get very breathless and Cardiologist put me on Dapagliflozin in lieu of metformin daily to help with breathlessness.

I am currently visiting family in Australia. Lovely as it is I have been feeling unwell, I suspected that I had a UTI. Eventually I decided to go the Emergency Department, thinking I needed anti biotics. Blissful little hospital in a tropical setting. I was the only patient ( sorry Brits). While there

It seemed as though researchers had identified metformin as a potential disease modifying drug for PD a few years back but I haven't heard anything about it recently. Anyone know what happened?
